“Welcome back underwater everybody” never gets old. Respect for not catching your limit if you don’t need it.
🙏
@@KeyWestWatermanwhat’s the biggest you have caught?
6 lobsters isn't a lot , I'd definitely need them all.
I very much appreciate your diligence to ethics, regulation/law… and family time in the kitchen. Safety and care for the ecosystem shines bright. Thank you.
really appreciate the kind words!
Your videos just never fail. Swear you’ve got the best vibe in this genre.
really appreciate that!
No doubt about that!
I agree!
For sure. Aaron, Taku (Outdoor Chef Life), and Rod (Rokkit Kit) have the best vibes for this segment!
@@user-eo5cc4pt6o Google genre and then ask me again if you feel the need.
Personally think it’s easily understandable.
Madeline’s laugh is so infectious.. your videos are always the real deal.. great job to all you guys.. peace.
It sure is!
Can’t go wrong on a Monday with Aaron and Madeline!!! Great video as always guys!!
haha thanks for tuning in!
So cool to see you and Madeline go out together 💜💙🦞
always a treat!
I second that
The only way 😊
I watch your episodes weekly. You are a magnet man and people are blessed to be in your life. You do a great job teaching, and keeping your tribe safe. Everyone hits it spot on.. you’re a great dude, with a good heart and great friends. You are blessed my man. Thanks for the content and letting us in on your life. Making content is hard but it makes people like me.. husband, dad of two remain connected to the water, even when we can’t go out so often. Thanks for that brother.
can't thank you enough for the kind words, comments like these make all the bad ones fade. and makes all the hard work worth it for me. more than you know, thank you 🙏
It’s amazing how quiet you three got out and Madeline was starving. Great video keep them coming!
haha right 😂
The story telling is excellent, calm an articulate, perfect voice for a interesting video-documentary!
Great picture too
glad you enjoyed it! thanks so much
Mondays are good because of you! Thanks Aaron for always making our days a little better .
My pleasure!!
You guys ever run into sharks while out there hunting?
You know it is good when no one is talking. Texas girl has it figured out with the net.
Great content guys.
haha right!
You brought back memories of when I was a kid living at Guantanamo Bay US Naval Base. We lived at the entrance of the bay and my dad ,brother and I would go catch lobsters almost in front of the house. They were huge. My mom would make the best lobster salad ever. Thanks for the memories
This is why I consistently watch you. I set an alarm for every Monday and you’ve been posting either Wednesdays and Thursdays or Fridays now which I love and I’m sure a lot of other people do. But I like how you prepare to explain something because I know you do voiceover and it just makes the videos 1000 times better I appreciate content. Keep them coming.
really appreciate the positive feedback!
And i really appreciate you for not only doing what you love but sharing with us that love it as well. Always and forever been a fisherman but I actually started spearing because of you brotha.
@@KeyWestWaterman ill book a trip with you soon brotha !
Good to see you both have some free time together. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.
always a treat for me!
@@KeyWestWaterman I don't care about lobsters, shrimp, fish, the wind, the muddywater, the storms, or your great fishing ability. If you don't show the amazing girl from the get and all the time, forget it. I'm moving on.
The more I see your boat the more I love it. The front steerage, the ease of access to the ice locker…really thought out well. Reminds me of earlier times enjoying the bounty from the ocean. Ahhh
The term “Fresh Seafood” takes on a whole different meaning with divers!
really love it the more we use it!
Ms. Paddlin Madeleine always brings it! Great recipe, definitely giving that a try. Thanks for the trip in the Gheenoe!
she always does!
I love Madeline’s out fit, and I love ❤lobster’s one of my favorite dishes I wish we could dive for lobster that would be amazing
🙏
Another awesome video, we went out to try and find some after work managed my limit of 6 but found a bunch of grouper and snapper that made me buy a new koah after years of not spearing. I’m happy to be back in the water your videos have definitely kept that alive over the last few years so thank you 🤙🏻
love to hear it!
Great "catch & cook" video of y'all harvesting and cooking your lobsters. Brings back so many fond memories of harvesting Stone Crabs from rock groins just off of the beach along Manasota Key, FL back in the '70's, then making Stone Crab Pot Pies .... so yummy !
Adding how to prepare them with a nice recipe is a nice touch. No one else is doing that. Your video has variety. I went ahead and subscribed.
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate it 🙏🏻
I thought for sure you were going to snag that crab too. Awesome video. It's nice to see someone that only takes what they need. It's soo nice to see Madeleine in a video too!
Me too
haha I thought about it! but will already had a few.
I grew up going to the keys every year for mini season with my parents my entire life up until I was about 15. I'm 25 now and have only been 2 or 3 times since I turned 18. mini season is very nostalgic for me, and its crazy to see how more and more boaters seem to show up every year. I miss being able to get down to the keys more than anything I've ever experienced. I hope to be able to afford to return the favor to my parents and start taking them back to the keys some day. thanks for the content, it lets me remember what home was like while I'm watching this all the way out in Japan!
def has changed so much over the years! so glad you enjoy the videos!
You and Madeline are our favorite RUclips couple. Thanks again for another scenic and fun video.
love to hear that!
When you have boiled the heads and shells into a stock, I take all the shells, guts and all, put it all into a cotton bag, and pound and crush it all up as much as possible, then you put it all into a blender and puree it into a thick paste, then strain it through a strainer, and then you will have the best tasting soup, stock or seafood sauce ever.... and you will NEVER throw the shell away again. I freeze it in ice cube trays to be thawed as needed. I live in Australia on the great barrier reef.
I bet its amazing! gonna have to give that a try
Cook idea thanks for the cooking tip.
Love the good food and camaraderie amongst friends at the end of a long day.
never gets old!
As a kid my dad would go over the side off the Navy docks with a hand spear and then flip Lobsters up for my brother to run down and drop in bucket. Life as a Navy kid in Key West, so many years ago !
My dad, my girlfriend and I always watch your videos together. Thank you for all the entertainment. Just ordered some merch too.
love to hear that! thanks so much!
Aaron, I like how you are truly an incredible person with true passion and love of the gift you have never overindulgence you think about the other person who wants to enjoy the lobster fest. “Even with the lobster Assassin.”
really appreciate the kinda words 🙏
Seriously 28:40. I moneyshot a Pavlovian response on my keyboard. 😂😂
Finding a honeyhole must be really tough with the humanity these days. I remember a day at Boca inlet in the very early 80s, the South jetty had antennae sticking out of seemingly every rock. All we had were gloves, pillowcases, and snorkel gear and we got our 6 each limit (as it was then) in short order. There were some dudes that were poaching and wringing near us, we got back to my buddy's house and called the Marine Patrol (as the FWC was known then). I had never seen so many bugs in my life. Had to be a walk the night before because I hadn't found them in previous days.
😂
29:20 they are waiting for the meat!!! Will is like man I can't eat another bite of brocko knowing theres lobster in there!!🤣🤣 Y'all are awesome!!!
😂
Lol awesome episode. The wife and I are drooling over here and laughing with y'all 😂 Madeleine wasn't far from cracking a whip in that kitchen to get that food done lmao. So ready to move to the Keys !!! Definitely looks like paradise !! As always thanks for bringing us along !!!
haha shes always a hoot! thanks for tuning in 🙏
That’s the problem with the keys; such a beautiful place with so much to offer, but so very little real estate available to the middle class. 😢
I absolutely love the ccc videos, and then the three of you all just hanging out eating good food. Love it!
thats what its all about for me! love to hear you enjoy it! 🙏
Makes me want to live in the Keys. But then I drive through Homesteads. 30 years ago was a totally different experience. I remember Frog gigging on my friends boat. Had them lined up like lines on a highway. Ma skeeter was a local legend and one of the best country cooks to ever prepare me a meal. I never got the pleasure of Gator hunting or Lobster fishing. Boa Constrictors were only seen if someone had a pet. Amazing how 3 decades can totally transform a place. I like '" Boat People " and enjoy island food but I really miss Southern Florida in the haydays
Madeleine's eyes on the First Bite Aaron said it all! Awesome meal. Being a Waterman most of my Life, it's those guilty pleasures of our lifestyle where food really does taste that goooooood. Happy New Year and Blessing's to many more Fair Winds and Following Seas. Safe Travels and Journey's ✌🙏👣👣
Such a genuine and laid back dude. Keep up the great work brotha
appreciate that!
Love your videos, and so did my husband. In fact, you and Will were the only two he would watch. He passed away last week, and now I have to watch you guys alone. 😢
I am so very sorry to hear that 😔 🙏
This is my first time watching and I say, what fun!! From catch to it was fun. I live in maine and I can't believe the difference in lobster. That recipe looks absolutely delicious! Looking forward to more.
I wish more people thought like you. Ya don’t have to limit out eeeevery time. Great video as always!
🙏
Everyone I talked to about this mini season said they worked a little harder to get a limit but ‘that’s just mini season’. Some years it’s easy, some years it’s harder. The relatively poor weather and low visibility bugged everyone. A few I know didn’t even go. Great channel, great videos, thanks Aaron, Pete Ramrod Key.
yea that seems to be the consensus! thanks for tuning in!
That was a great outing . I love how you arent greedy. If you dont live there that would be hard. The recipe looked awesom. Thanks again for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it, it was a fun day!
Great video. Looking forward to more spearfishing vids. Never get tired of watching you hunt grouper
more on the way!
Madeline rocked it man, make your mind a good place to be!! Awesome shirt!!
she always does!
I have missed the last few seasons having moved to Tennessee this makes me miss where I born and raised sooo bad,there’s nothing better than fresh out of the ocean that you catch
hate to hear it but thanks for coming along! hope it helped!
Bleak cold wind n driving rain here,soo good to escape by watching yall living the good life over there ,2 months more for us to endure before good weather let's us hit the horizon so stay gold yall and keep up the content ,ty and count your many blessings❤
thanks so much for tuning in!
In your scouting video I was saying lobster linguine but after seeing this I change my mind! I've done something similar to this but with Oysters on the grill and added bacon bits. I'm definitely trying this recipe. Thanks for sharing Aaron!
yup! thats how this one started was with oysters!
You and Maddy are the coolest 👍
just really good at faking it! haha
So difficult to watch your “cook” section of your videos because my mouth won’t stop drooling 🤤 🦞
😂 I guess thats a good thing!
This is a perfect day, doing something fun that absorbs your attention while getting lots of outdoors exercise ending up with fresh, gourmet meal with friends and probably sleeping like a baby that night.
Couldn't agree more!
Love it. We have been looking for lobster for a couple years. We must do shallow water like this video.this synched it. Gonna try ocean side this winter. Great recipe for us to try too. The lovely Madeleine is always a plus in your videos. Thanks again for great content
thanks for watching!
Wonderful episode. Love 'catch to table' vids. keep up the outstanding work! and thanks for sharing
glad you enjoyed it!
Began watching your videos last night. I enjoy watching you and your lady dive together. I luv lobster!!! 🙏🏾 🦞🏖️🐚🐾
LOVE catching, cleaning, and cooking them but barely will ever eat them. Dozens and dozens of others we have had join us over the years have all become thrilled with the hunt and catch. Especially in that 6-12' depth.
lol... the bigger ones are almost always in the back pushing all the babies up to the front. 😂
haha they always are
We saw you on the way out this day yelling your name and right after we got pulled over by FWC😂
Wish we got to meet this year but only saw you on the move and I will tell you the water was so dirty so sketchiest it was just like the water like we have back home. I can’t thank you enough for your videos and all the things you’ve taught me over the past few years. We loaded up on spider crab and it was some of the best crab I’ve ever had. We limited out both days and I’ll give you a spot that you can take the contender to whenever and there are always lobster there. Even had a few charters pull up next to us on the second day. Limited out with 36 both days. No sharks this year somehow or was just so dirty we didn’t see them. Awesome vid can’t wait to see the water clear up!
haha thats awesome love to hear yall have a good trip! did better than most from what I hear!
Nice life guys. congrats!!!😎
Always look forward to seeing y’all on Monday and always have to eat after watching these videos. Great job as always!!
love to hear it!
5 years ago, I moved from Montana to Utah. I like it here but I can't stand the winters anymore. Every time I take a real vacation, it's to the ocean. It calls me now. I am 53 and newly retired for medical reasons, and although nobody knows when your time is up, the docs don't have any confidence in my situation. You have an amazing life there on the coast. You may or may not be bored of it, but videos like this make me dream of it. Best wishes to you and Madeline!
Great video Aaron & Madeleine! I guarantee you are one of the only mini season YTers that didn’t catch their limit. Love it. You truly a master and someone to be respected and admired for your beliefs.
That cook makes me think I can do that with Atlantic Canadian lobster and I have access year round. Not allowed to catch sadly, but I love to cook. Any chance you can post your recipe?
Thanks for sharing!!!
really appreciate the positive feedback! I try to cover them in depths in the vids so I don't have to type them out, just one more thing to add to my to do list! time is always of the essence around here haha!
@@KeyWestWaterman don’t ever change Aaron. We always suggest on what’s easy for us, not thinking of the extra work for you.
One final observation bud. Never, I mean NEVER complain when she goes for the whole thing.
😂
@@KeyWestWaterman will a spot that has been fished replenish its for the next day 15:23
@@Ronie792they move around at night so potentially.
Lobster roll in the shell, Madeline the bug snatcher 😂, great video thanks for taking us along 👍👍😁
haha thanks for tuning in!
RUclips has given you a different definition of "commercial fisherman". Boy, was there lots of them this episode. The long 15 second ones that you can't skip. But if it helps you make money, I'm glad to watch them.
not sure, why. I remove most of the ads RUclips tries to put in. normally over half. try to keep it at 3-4 per 30 min episode.
LETS GOOOOO i was getting worried there wouldn’t be a video this week! fav channel on youtube 😎 time to watch another banger
haha never miss a Monday!
Good times, been to long for me. Going to have to get down there and catch and cook again. Thanks
way too fun!
Another great Monday show. Definitely made me want some lobster, and will be trying that recipe. Thanks for taking us along….
glad you enjoyed it!
This Bugs For You!
👍👍👏👏 Kudos on content, narration and post production.
Props to you for always keeping things realistic, man. Got a question about etiquette and would love your perspective. As you say, finding these spots takes a lot of time and effort, and some people don't like to put in that time. I'm one of the people who's spent many weekends just looking for holes. But sometimes, going out with friends is the best part of these experiences. What do you usually do when a good friend invites you on their boat? Put in a spot, but delete it after? Keep all your spots just to yourself? Put the number in and leave it in their GPS? Keep your own portable GPS and use it to get there?
really depends on the person, if im being honest I go on another persons boat maybe 2-3 times a year. most of my friends down here have spots so I never need to bring any!
More Maddie, she's as cool as you. Be great if Kelly and Maddie would do more together, great vibe.
Who is Kelly? Wil's woman?
@@GoatRoper911I’m assuming it’s Kelly Young.
They’ve done some videos together and they fit.
way cooler than me! love getting some time with her!
I still can't get over these spiny lobsters squeaking when you catch them, also I'm pretty sure they were having a conversation at around the 13:50 mark which cracked me up
lol
i love when i wake up and i hear "HOW IS IT GOING BOYZ AND GIRLZ"
haha! love it!
Great video man! Looks like you and Madeline had a great time out there! We went out for mini season up here in big pine, but the storms and wind were horrible the whole day. We managed to catch our limit and had a great time tho. Awesome video!
glad you enjoyed it! def had a fun day regardless of the conditions!
Great fun dive! Awesome mini season recipe (I stole it :O) and so good to see you guys having a great healthy life.
haha enjoy!
Damn Sandy and Flipper are never around when you need them!
Haha right!
Madeline be gettin HANGRY! Lol , looks like a ton of fun. Thanks for another good one!
haha always
One of these days I'm gonna be an adult and remember mini season exists so I can actually put a reminder on my phone to participate 😂. Great video as usual, and awesome catch and cook! Although, I can't help but feel bad for the lil cat waiting so politely and patiently for its plate of lobster only to be denied and then on top of that have its seat stolen! The sad longing look @ the 30:50 min mark had me lmao. Hope they at least got some lobster bits later on. I would sleep with one eye open if I were you.😂😂😂
haha tuna is spoiled beyond belief!
You guys made this look so very easy! How far from the shore were you guys, I couldn't see land! Last question, how did you mark that spot? Fantastic video, I enjoyed every minute of it!
lots of practice! only a mile or so from land. and my GPS!
@@KeyWestWaterman
Forgot to add that, it is most admirable to take simply what you can immediately consume, leaving behind the rest for others or, well the environment, cool stewardship of the natural resource!
150 Euro a plate easy over here for such a meal. All beauty in this video man. Well done.
glad you enjoyed it!
The high point is when she flipped her hair all over the counter and food! That was awesome!!!!
😂
Great video as usual!
I never learned to hold my breath long enough for lobsters. I'd need traps if I was there. I have a couple crab traps and they're pretty productive for being dropped from a pier while I try to catch fish.
its not so bad in the shallows!
Click bait
👍.,
How am I click bait when I was in the video the whole time? Lol.
Nope.
don't worry about pervs expecting to watch a porn on YT because they see a thumbnail of someone in a bikini
I have no idea how you do not have 350k subscribers, if not 500k. Really good work buddy.
maybe one day! thanks for tuning in 🙏
Livin a Dream. Lobsters anytime you want, when in season! Thks for sharing 🤙😎
Good video. I appreciate the way you take what you need and leave the rest. Be safe out there!
Butter, animal fat, is very healthy as opposed to heated vegetable oils that are the cause of arterial inflammation. Your videos are so much fun to watch, because they are real. Thank you.
You are definitely bringing back memories for me now that I'm pushing 70.
I know that’s is gonna be Awesome, I love see you show us how it’s done in your back yard!
thanks for tuning in!
I have great respect for the fact that you take what you need. A lot of Spearos chase the biggest, or the most, but that is not the way of water.
haven't always been this way, has been changing as I'm getting older. but I do hunting the trophy down every now and again still!
Call Madeline was so hungry. Can you spell meticulously making that dish I felt bad for her lol great show.
haha
I don’t usually like hunting but there’s something about lobstering that makes it look very enjoyable
I love watching you guys! Thank you for another great video! ❤
Looked like a nice crab was in there too! I remember my first trip to Belize. I went out fishing with a local and they had pieces of plywood on the ocean floor propped up with a stick to make a artificial ledge and he dove down and caught me some. I love the taste of spinytails!
This popped up in my feed and so I started watching it for nostalgia reasons. It reminded me that my NPS lionfish card expires next year, so thanks for that
haha love it
@@KeyWestWaterman yeah, I used to live on St John in the Virgin Islands. We need a permit to hunt in national park waters.
Your lady loves that you’re so proud to feature her in your videos. Cute. Congrats on your happiness together. Take care
Legit salivating up here in Ontario Canada. One day I’ll live down there and this will be my routines. Much love.
haha thanks for watching!
Cooking catching or cruising never too old to learn thank you for your videos nice Queen Angels out there especially the one with the net she earns her keep
thanks for watching!
Good job ! Had a timeshare at the Galleon on Front St in Key West for 35 Years. Never get tired of the Keys water Life '
Hell of a run!
Oh that brings back memories. Shallow water.....bad vis.......lots of shorts.....and a few legals. Also weight hanging off my front like Madelin and a tickle stick/net. No wet suit and no gloves. I never actually grabbed one. Love your videos, cherish those opportunities. Cheers
🙏
I love watching your videos!! I love how real you are and very conscious of our Florida ecosystems and always helping build/maintain and save them. Very inspiring! Keep up the amazing content! My husband and I also cook recipes from your friend all the time too! @cookingwithclams and love seeing your photographer friends content too. 😊 So wholesome and informative! Thank you for what you do!
really appreciate the positive feedback! we try to do good when we can, thanks so much 🙏
Very beautiful video image quality at minute 29:39 it's as if I was with you I even felt the warmth of the friendliness of a guest (wow), you are adorable.
Surely, One day I'll try this recipe.
Love you all 🫶
so good!
Dang that looks SOOOOO Delicious !!!! My ONLY complaint is I was so Distracted by Paddlin' Madeline and Her Mermaid Hair that I feel like I missed some crucial info.... I guess I'll just have to watch it again..... As Always Great Job !!!!
😂
"I know a guy"
Love it. Y'all are great.
haha
